Corning
Corning Incorporated is the world leader in specialty glass and ceramics. Drawing on more than 150 years of materials science and process engineering knowledge, Corning creates and makes keystone components that enable high-technology systems for consumer electronics, mobile emissions control, telecommunications and life sciences.
- Challenges
-
Corning was unsatisfied with the built-in search features of the Microsoft Commerce Server, which they used for the Corning Life Sciences Online Catalog. With a total product count of about 20K, they turned to LTech and the GSA. Corning needed a custom coded solution to modify their VB.Net built website to interact with the GSA and Commerce Server, as well as custom pricing on results and product comparison options.
- LTech Solution
-
LTech assessed the problems and determined a solution for the Corning development team to implement. This solution included a custom feed/index process to push Corning's products into the GSA with appropriate meta-data, as well as a plan for developing a .Net bridge for the GSA. Ltech also performed all GSA admin functions during the development process and produced a deployment plan for the Corning Operations team.
- Results
-
LTech's implementation of the Google Search Appliance gave Corning and their customers an efficient and easy-to-use product search. The search speed has improved by over 200% and has allowed Corning's users to search their products in new ways.
